My advice is to: T a k e I t S l o w Start by going vegetarian first. Going full-vegan is possible but after the initial period a lot of people find it very hard to sustain and relapse. Going vegetarian is the first step to let your body and mind adapt. Personally I would not...

Absolutely agree with Winter.Frost about Cronometer. Awesome online App. Actually I would start there first. Log your food in there and see if you are missing any micro / macro nutrients?

love it. It's important that we not only avoid the *meat / dairy* industry... But also support companies that are aligned in the non-cruelty industry. Would love to visit that place!

It's an interesting topic... And one that has foundations in some sense, but is too inflexible. "Centre-right MP says she wants law aimed at protecting children from diets that can leave them lacking in iron and other vitamins" Sure - I agree with that. Parents should be responsible for their...

Hinduism... True Hindu's are expected to be vegetarians, though there are a lot who now simply exclude beef.

Wow... you seem very active..! Have you had your hormones checked by a doctor by the way? There is also the fact that while you are doing all this exercise, you are building muscle at the same time... and muscle weighs more than fat. So the scales will not be a good guide for your fat loss...

Hi Domino I am no doctor but I can give some basic "Bro-science" advice based on my experience. But first I would like to ask a couple of questions regarding re-balancing your hormones: How many meals do you have a day How much do you eat in each meal? What type of food is it? e.g. is it...

Welcome Vittoria! I was born in London but now living up North due to work I'll be sure to visit the links Winter posted for the next time I visit :)

Hi Gab, Thanks for the welcome. I absolutely agree with you Winter, you never know what each individual will resonate with most. Maybe even multiple different styles may appeal to someone, depending on their mood on a certain day. However since you asked, I personally differentiate between...

Dear Forum owners I understand that the subforums are subject to people wanting to participate in them, but I would like to put forward two new categories: Philosophy and bodybuilding Philosophy because I believe its one of the major reasons why people turn vegan, in addition to health...

I am more prone towards building muscle while on a vegan diet... so unfortunately I fall into the latter category ;) Actually I think this is a major reason why a lot (a LOT) of men do not even consider veganism. There is a masculine desire to be strong, and most people see veganism as the...

My pleasure. The points you made also resonated deeply with me. That quote by Paul McCartney is so true... There is such a thick, beautiful curtain covering the food industry that noone wants to pull it back and look at the horror of what happens behind it..

I'm afraid I can't help you with your 18 month son... I am too young to have given that much thought yet... But with your partner, I agree with Winter.frost, time and patience is what is needed. You've done the first part by showing him reality... now you have to lead by example, and find ways...

What are your favourite high protein meals? I love combining quinoa, buckwheat or rice with things like: lentils chickpeas black beans yellow split peas I mostly prepare them from packed dry rather than tinned unless I am feeling super lazy... To do this I soak them overnight in water and a...

Hah, I just saw the video... funny. I would not go as far as to inject my own derrier with B12! But I absolutely agree that there is nothing wrong with supplementing if it helps us

Sia, I sometimes have those thoughts too, and I agree, it can get very frustrating if we allow it to. It's true, different animals eat other animals - it's the way of the world. There are even plants that eat insects (venus flytrap) and plants that kill other plants (google allelopathy). If I...

Lemon water does it for me... It makes me feel like the lemon cuts through any brain fog and makes me more alert. Maybe you guys are anti-caffeine, but of course, good quality coffee makes me feel very alert ;)

Hi guys, I saw a few posts on people feeling under-the-weather and once I like you thought that if we are eating so many fruits and vegetables - why are we getting sick? The video that illuminated the issue for me is this: Dr. Michael Greger talks about why a 40 year vegan dies of a heart...

Hello everyone! Glad to be here... I am a newbie vegan, about 1 and a half months in. But there is no way I will be going back. I've joined here in the hopes finding a community of fellow vegans to talk with, wishing to eventually make a more active impact for our cause Look forward to meeting...
